The lyrics of Lillix's song "What I Like About You" convey the exhilaration of being with someone you love. The recurring line, "Tell me all the things that I want to hear" reveals the craving for validation and reassurance from a partner. The singer admires her partner's ability to hold her tight, dance well, and keep her warm at night, all the things that make her feel loved and safe. The song conveys a lovely sentiment of appreciation for the little things that make a relationship work, beyond the grand gestures and public declarations of love. The fact that the lyrics consist of relatively simple declarations of admiration and desire underscores the immediate and primal emotions evoked when one is in love.

Lyric's
Now I've had the time of my life
No, I never felt like this before
Yes I swear, it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I owe it all to you
I've been waiting for so long
Now I've finally found someone
To stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical fantasy
Now with passion in our eyes
There's no way we could disguise it secretly
So we take each other's hand
'Cause we seem to understand
The urgency
Just remember
You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because
I've had the time of my life
No, I never felt this way before
Yes, I swear, it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
Hey, baby
With my body and soul
I want you more than you'll ever know
So we'll just let it go
Don't be afraid to lose control, no
Yes, I know what's on your mind
When you say, "Stay with me tonight" (stay with me)
Just remember
You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because
I've had the time of my life
No, I never felt this way before
Yes, I swear, it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I've searched though every open door
'Til I found the truth
And I owe it all to you
Now I've had the time of my life
No, I never felt this way before
Yes, I swear, it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
I've had the time of my life
No, I never felt this way before
Yes, I swear, it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life (the time of my life)
And I've searched though every open door
'Til I found the truth
And I owe it all to you

I love the intro for this cover, especially when the second guitar joins in at 0:06. The guitar goes harder in Lillix's version than in the original song.

I know the Romantics did the original, and it was good. But this cover brought an energy that they didn’t quite achieve. 🙌🙌🙌
lovely kiyah

The Romantics version is higher energy and has a better flow than this version. But this version is better than the generic sounding version done by 5 Years of Summer (or whatever they're called).
B CH
LOL. No.
